#saw mp for the second time tonight#overall my thoughts didn’t change much from the first watch#I think it is a wonderfully done film#it is simplistically beautiful#the characters especially patrick feel wonderfully complex while still feeling attainable#they tell the story differently in the book but I love the way the movie tells it as well#especially the cut back scenes so you see the patrick and tom angle after seeing the tom and marion angle for the first portion#the cinematography is absolutely beautiful and the color grading is superb#the way marion and tom are always in cooler light or an almost chilly ambiance versus patrick and tom even sometimes with marion it’s all#warm light and flushed cheeky and comfort#and the score ! is unreal#the way the music ebbs and flows with conflict or cuts out entirely in moments of pure vulnerability so all you’re left with is#a puff of breath or a scratch of fabric#it’s beautiful#I obviously think harry is wonderful but david and emma are phenomenal in their roles#and linus plays a fabulous older tom to the way he speaks to the mannerisms it’s just beyond#I think this movie is important in its simplicity#it comments on the time period while not making it feel like a period piece or some huge statement#I genuinely genuinely think it’s a perfect comfort film#rainy day slightly sad feeling lost needing hope whatever it is you’re searching for I think you can find a piece of it in this film#next bit i’m gonna talk a little spoilery so don’t read if you don’t want but !#I really found myself appreciating marion’s final scene so much more the second time where earlier in the movie when they’re singing in the#car and she sticks her hand out the window and the end is a continuation of that as she’s racing away from the sea is really beautiful#donttttt even get me started on patrick and toms last scene my theatre tonight was even quieter than the first time I saw it but the#collective gasp half sob half sigh of relief of hope of sadness of happiness that filled the room#makes me so so so glad I saw it in theatres as much as an audience can sometimes be more annoying than great I think that moment made it#it’s not a blow your mind holy hell type of movie but it’s an important film I think#and most importantly I can see it withstanding the ultimate test of time#I think everyone should see it and better yet in a theater if you’re able but it’s a movie I will definitely find myself watching again#and again in the future 🤍

It's webcomicday! I make those!
NAMESAKE -  is about saving the universe while improvising with portal & phenomenal cosmic powers, necromancy, and a literature degree. 
Emma Crewe doesn’t care for books, but has the power to literally be lost in one.
When Emma lands in another world following a library fire, she discovers she’s a Namesake — one with the power to open portals to other worlds via the power of their name: strange, fantasy, and fairy-tale lands we know thanks to literature, cinema, and folks tales. The rules of Namesakes are quite clear - Alices always go to Wonderland. Wendys always go to Neverland. However, Emma finds herself in Oz, where she is expected to act as the latest in a long line of Dorothies. She instead unveils a magical conspiracy plot that’s more than 100 years in the making.
While Emma is stumbling down the Yellow Brick Road, her younger sister Elaine discovers she’s a Writer — one gifted with the power to make stories come to life. Will Elaine be her sister’s key back home?
Aided by magic-wielding twins from Oz, a half-Cheshire Alice, a devilishly charming Jack, a sword-wielding Lost Girl, a hungry card soldier, and a confused Canadian, Emma must walk through many stories to find everyone’s happy ending.

Y'all, I don't know what made Gen V writers think they had the right to hurt me this badly. PLEASE, WHAT WAS THIS EPISODE??? The way this episode tugged at my heartstrings was unforgiveable.
My precious baby girl Cate, she did many things wrong but at the same time did absolutely nothing wrong and I need for her to know that. Her mother was trash to the core & needs to choke. What she needs now is a good ole hug and some hot cocoa because the way she must have been suffering all those years knowing so much and having nobody to tell... I'm glad she now has Marie. Also, now that she's off those pill blockers or whatever they were, the full range of her powers is gonna be immenseeee.
Jordannnnnn my beloved, the love of my life. Nah, the way it hurt me to see him crying. Derek Luh you were phenomenal. Like, they've literally never done anything wrong EVER. They are so precious to me. The guilt they must have been carrying knowing that they saw the interaction between Luke and Brink but bought into the lies & manipulation. At least they questioned it though, some people would have just outright ignored it.. I also kinda feel like Marie reminded them of their original goal to be a hero and what it truly meant and how detrimental being selfish is which is why they were so ruffled by her. Also, Andre can choke for the way he spoke to Jordan... "just always looking out for yourself" EXCUSE YOU, THE PERSON FUCKING HIS BFFs GIRLFRIEND!!!
Andre, bruhhhh. Like I get why he was mad but he was acting like the moral police meanwhileeeeeeee absolute trash. I actually for one second thought him, Cate & Luke were in some polyamorous relationship kinda thing BUT they werent.. he just is "that guy". The only good thing he did was telling Cate to wake tf up. Also, the tone he took with Marie too, like boy if you don't sit your ass down somewhere.. You're on thin ice pal!!
Marieeeee, my precious angel, my beautiful baby girl. She is the definition of a girl's girl. I love her so much omggggg and the fact her sister thinks she's a monster makes my heart break for her. Also love that she was the only one to stand up for Cate and openly give her another chance!!! Jaz absolutely killed it.
Marie/Jordan. THE EYES NEVER LIE. These two kept looking at each other, standing next to each other... like, it's married couple material right there. The both of them need to sit down and talk but I also love that they're going the slow burn route with them.
Emma and Sam were cute but reallyyyyy?? Everyone's fighting for their life but they're just having sex lmaoooo. Good for them though.
Shetty needs to die, as does the Dr. Sorry, I make the rules. It would be poetic justice for Sam to be the one to kill them after all the shit they've done to him.
Also, next week's episode is titled 'Sick'. I have a feeling that the supes (the main 6) are gonna be infected maybe at the end of the episode & Marie will have to find a way to save them. Because of her blood powers she might not be susceptible to catching the disease, which is why the Dr wanted to test on her so badly. OMG WHAT IF JORDAN STARTS SHOWING SYMPTOMS WHILE THEM AND MARIE ARE DOING DETECTIVE THINGS. Thats honestly fanfic material right there...

Top 5 batb 2017 trivia 💛
this is exquisite. thank you <3
1. okay the first thing i NEED PEOPLE TO KNOW!!!!!!!!!!! is about adam’s mother. so in this flashback scene it shows her, presumably dead, in bed while adam sings sadly
Tumblr media
you’ll notice she has dark hair. BUT LISTEN ! ! ! she actually is blonde and i can explain what happened. first of all, to prove she’s blonde, look! she’s blonde in the portrait!
Tumblr media
the actress is in fact blonde as well. so why is her hair dark in that one shot you ask? well, when they did that scene, with her lying in bed and her blonde hair laying along her shoulder, apparently focus groups thought she looked like agathe, the enchantress, and questioned if agathe was in fact actually adam’s mother. so in a quick and desperate attempt to make sure no one thought the two women looked similar, they edited her hair to look dark. i understand the logic and timing-wise it was probably the best they could do, but it does annoy me because now people always think adam’s mother had dark hair🫠 so go spread the word!!!!! adam got his blonde hair and blue eyes from his MAMA!!!!!💛🩵
2. DAN STEVENS DID SOOOO MUCHHHH!!!!!!!!!! he BREATHED life into adam, and i ADORE him for it. my favorite tidbit about all the work he did, was that he did ALL the face acting Twice. he would act in the big suit on the ten-inch stilts on set, and then every few weeks he would go into a room and have his face sprayed with motion-capture dots and then he’d redo all the scenes with Just his face. here’s a good gifset that gives these behind the scenes visuals. it’s just so remarkable and i am so so thankful for all the work he put into it. there are so many (basically all??) scenes were i’m watching and i can just FEEL adam’s emotions, purely by his facial expressions and body language !! like it’s just phenomenal and i’m so eternally grateful to dan stevens for all that he did to bring that beloved boy to life.
3. according to an interview, apparently when they were done filming the final scene (the celebration ball), someone played happy by pharrell williams over the speakers and they all danced to it in their fancy 18th century costumes, in that lovely decadent ballroom. and it’s such a funny and super endearing sight to imagine, i ALWAYS think about it when that song comes on or is mentioned.
4. at the very first table read, when it came time for the THE DANCE, emma thompson just got up and went to a microphone and started singing “beauty and the beast.” no prep at all, and certainly no one expected her to sing on the first go-around, but she did! she sang along while two of the dancers did the dance. she’s such a legend :”)
5. dan stevens knows his name is prince adam and it fills me with immense amounts of joy :)
(around the 0:37 second mark)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
he also talks a lot about how he made the scenes, like i mentioned earlier, in this (short) interview!!!!!!!

hi zainab!!!! 2, 3, 6, and 29 for the fic writer ask???
Hi Mak! Thank you for sending these in!
2. Do you read/reread your own fics?
Yes, because I am absolutely my own biggest fan!
On a much more practical note, sometimes I reread because it's part of a series and I'm checking a canonical detail (although if it's in the Bake Off AU I'm better off just asking @sesamestreep, who is the official lorekeeper and knows that universe's canon better than I do.) Other times, there's a fic where I just really like what I did with a character's voice or the general tone of a scene and I'll go back just to get a feel for what I did the last time.
3. What’s your favorite fic that you’ve written?
I mean, the Bake Off AU has my whole heart and there's so much of me in it that it will always be special to me BUT!!! I really love the Thunderbolts-era epistolary fic counted days, counted miles because I think it's an exercise in me managing to show writerly restraint, which is a skill I'm still working on. (And also I got to come up with so many fun spy tricks for hiding letters; it was great.)
6. Are there any fics from others you reread all the time?
How fortuitous that you picked this question when I have reread wish that i could wind (like a spiral stair through time) FIVE TIMES in the past month. That fic is a work of art. I am also never far from rereading and never ever watch the ten o'clock news, which is Emma's phenomenal Psych AU of Rogue One which is just so wonderful and funny and it continues to hold up. Oh also! There's don't read the last page, which is a Brooklyn Nine-Nine fic that is short and sweet and just so warm and cozy and I go back to that one a lot just for the mood of it.
29. Share a bit from a fic you’ll never post OR from a scene that was cut from an already posted fic.
Okay so this question reminded me that there's a 1200 word scene from the Formula 1 AU that was originally going to be the epilogue but got canned which SUBSEQUENTLY reminded me that there's a whole scene that I wrote for the Bake Off AU that got cut from Chapter 6 because things ended up going another way!
The beginning will looks familiar if you remember anything from that chapter, but then there's a sharp left turn that involves the lost plot point of Becca Barnes creeping on Joaquín's thirst trap and restaurant review filled Instagram in order to figure out where Bucky could go for dinner. I was sad to lose it tbh but the restaurant still made it into the fic as the place where Sam and Bucky go out on their definitely-not-a-date in Chapter 10.
A peek at the alternate timeline under the cut!
Bucky is starfished on his bed, trying to muster the energy to get up when his phone rings. His eyes are squeezed shut, but he opens one to peer at the screen. He only answers because it’s Becca, but he’s too tired to do more than grunt into the phone when he picks up.
“Good day, huh?” she asks, laughing when he just groans in response.
“Hope yours was better than mine,” Bucky says, when he finally manages to talk. “How’s day shift treating you?”
“I’m discovering that there’s this thing in the sky called the sun, and it provides light? And makes people happy? Do you think other people know about it? Should I be telling them?”
He laughs tiredly. “You can use all this newfound energy to make a TikTok about it.”
“I’ll get on that,” Becca says. “What about you? You okay?”
“Yeah,” says Bucky, bringing his hand up to his face. “I just need to lie down for a while.”
Not that lying down for the past half hour has helped, but he’s got high hopes for that sixty minute mark.
“No, what you need to do is eat something,” Becca says, sounding remarkably like their mother. “Tell me your head isn’t hurting right now.”
Bucky freezes, his fingers still pressed into his temples. “It’s creepy when you do that, you know.”
She laughs. “I know. Hey, why don’t you go to that place that you and Steve went to all the time, the one with the waffles?”
The last time Bucky had been there, four years ago, he’d spent the entire evening bickering companionably with Sam while Steve dealt with a work emergency. It had felt remarkably like flirting, and he’d even thought about asking Sam to get a drink sometime—and then Bucky had been eliminated after the next day’s Showstopper, and that put an end to that.
He shakes his head to clear it. “I’m tired, Bec, and they pick us up at like, six AM. I think I might just grab something from the convenience store.”
“Buck, I spend half my time listening to newborn babies cry and that is still the most pitiful thing I’ve heard this week. You are not eating yogurt for dinner alone in your hotel room.”
Bucky huffs. “Well, I’d grab a random stranger off the street to join me, but I’m not looking to get murdered today, Rebecca.”
He can hear the sound of Becca typing, doing the thing where she studiously ignores his asshole behavior until he comes around and starts acting a more like a person. It’s annoying how well it works. 
After a minute or two of typing and what he assumes is scrolling, she lets out a, “Huh.”
When he waits for her to elaborate and she doesn’t, Bucky sighs. “What is it?”
“Do you know a Joaquín Torres?”
It’s far from the question he was expecting but Bucky answers in the affirmative. “He’s a baking consultant on the show.”
More typing. “Does he have good taste?”
There’s a tiny, childish part of Bucky that wants to say no, because Torres is chirpy and bright-eyed and his unfailing enthusiasm is exhausting at times, but that would be a lie. “Yeah, he knows his stuff. Why?”
“He lives in Atlanta; he posts about a lot of local hidden gems. There’s a Tunisian restaurant a couple blocks from your hotel, apparently? Kind of looks like a hole in the wall but he says the food is amazing.”
“I don’t know, Bec. It’s late and eating out alone is depressing.” His limbs feel heavy, and his shoulder is starting to hurt from having the prosthetic on for so long, and he knows that food would make his headache go away, but he just can’t drag himself off the bed.
Like Becca knows what track his mind is on—and honestly, she probably does—, she chooses this moment to go for the knockout. “Come on, Buck; it’s my job to look out for you, and you’re too far away for me to drag you out to dinner and make sure you eat. Throw a girl a bone here.”
She’s too powerful for her own good.
Bucky drags a hand down his face, sighing again. “You know, I hear some people don’t let their baby sisters tell them what to do all the time.”
“Poor them,” says Becca.
“Poor them,” echoes Bucky, and asks her to text him the address.
When she does, he looks it up and realizes that it really is only two blocks away: completely walkable, even in Atlanta’s late spring heat, and only a little further than the convenience store where he’d planned to grab his apparently pathetic dinner.
It’s only when he gets to the door of the restaurant that he remembers it’s a Saturday night and he probably should have thought to make a reservation. The place only has a handful of tables to begin with, and they’ve all got people at them. The host already has an apologetic look on his face as Bucky walks in, but they both turn in surprise when they hear someone inside the restaurant call out to him.
“Bucky!” says Joaquín, as brightly as ever. “Come sit with us.”
Because the universe has a sense of humor, ‘us’ is of course Joaquín and Sam, who are having dinner together. Alone. On a Saturday night.
It can’t be a date, Bucky reasons. No one would invite a random acquaintance to third-wheel their date, right?
He realizes that he still hasn’t responded when the host assures him that of course they’ll be able to add another place setting to the table, and before he knows it, Bucky is being whisked over to their table.
Whatever mood had settled over Sam after the signature today seems to have dissipated, and he turns to Bucky with a grin on his face. “I hope you trust Torres over here, because he ordered way too much food for us and didn’t let me see the menu.”
Joaquín shrugs. “I come here a lot,” he says. “Not enough people know about it, but it’s amazing.”
“Which is why he’s on a mission to be their one-man marketing team,” says Sam. “We got here half an hour ago and he’s already posted on Instagram like, ten times.”
Bucky thinks of the sound of Becca on her computer as she’d talked to him earlier, how she’d pivoted from suggesting the diner he’d probably have ended up at to this specific restaurant, and suddenly, this coincidence feels markedly less like a coincidence.
He’d probably feel more annoyed about it if he didn’t spend the meal close enough to Sam for their shoulders to constantly be brushing. Torres is right; the food is great, but if anyone asks, Bucky’s pretty sure the only thing he’d be able to recount is how many times Sam touched his arm to ask him to pass things, or dished some more food onto his plate, or gently nudged him while telling Joaquín stories of their time filming season two.
When the check comes, Bucky insists on paying, to make up for crashing Sam and Joaquín’s dinner, and as they stand on the sidewalk outside the restaurant, Joaquín offers to drop them off at the hotel on his way home. He’s about to accept when Sam waves it off. 
“I think we’ll just walk back,” says Sam. “It’s so nice out, and the hotel’s probably closer than your car is.”
There’s a moment where all three of them silently commiserate over the trials of city parking, and then Joaquín says he’ll see them tomorrow and heads off.
Bucky glances sidelong at Sam, whose eyebrows are knitted together as he looks down the street towards their hotel. He can see the entrance from where they’re standing, but Sam gently touches his elbow and nods down the street to their left—the long way, Bucky realizes, a moment too late.

random method acting thoughts + asks
Tumblr media
correct. you are absolutely correct. AND I THINK I MENTIONED THIS A FEW TIMES but every time I feel like method acting drama is unrealistic I remember that nicki minaj exists and sleep well at night. MEGAN DEFENDER FOR LIFE
Tumblr media
trust. we've got a tweets heavy chapter. and her comeback tweet is so petty I don't even know how we got here but we're here
Tumblr media
WAIT UR SO RIGHT. casual E charm around her neck and she's just like yeah what? no i'm not dating him what are you talking about (yes, she is)
Tumblr media
thank you so much ☹️ i've been having the worst week (for two weeks in a row) and kind words like this mean so much to me. the headspace has not been the most fun space to be lately (and sometimes I worry that reflects in what I wrote) but i'm glad that it's made you happy and given you that feeling of love. that's all I could hope for and it almost makes me teary eyed that some shred of that is still there even when i'm not feeling the best 💌
here are my random thoughts:
connie has the online presence of tik tok user @/nmillz. like him single handedly reviving all in my head (flex) by fifth harmony (PLEASE TELL ME YOU'VE SEEN IT) is the funniest thing ever and even the way he talks/what he talks about reminds me of method acting connie 😭
this is so random but mentally in my head, I associate some of the characters with like real celebrities and influencers in terms of aesthetic and vibe, which i've seen some readers do which is so interesting cuz our picks are never the same
like y/n in my head is olivia rodrigo coded. like her having a specific brand (very romantic, lovey dovey) when she was on disney channel (and maybe was asked to lean into really hard) as opposed to guts/sour which is so.....emotional/ jealously/rock that's kind of the vibe I get from that character (or at least where we are headed)
historia in terms of aesthetic/character is sabrina carpenter and taylor swift. sabrina carpenter in terms of aesthetics/looks (she is very much the beauty standard, the dream girl, nonsense outros) and in terms of character is taylor swift? like she's a relatable but there's a part of her that's always going to be untouchable (for taylor that's just cuz I think she's a billionaire/very detached from reality, but for the character that just stems from being so deep in the whole industry type thing that she kind of forgets what matters sometimes)
gabi in general reminds me of billie eilish, in terms of where her character will go. I wanted to include the real life hate that gabi as a character got in the show into the story, but I also feel like that hate sometimes is given to billie eilish. to the point where when she wins grammy's she's apologizing bc she feels like she doesn't deserve it, but at the end of the day...she's one of the most talented artists in our generation? what was I made for? bad guy? happier than ever? they were all phenomenal. gabi can be a great actress but she'll never feel like it!
sukuna and y/n give zendaya and timothee vibes. eren and lana give bradley cooper and emma stone in the variety actors on actors interview.
falco and gabi are walter scobell and leah sava jefferies in terms of dynamic and vibes. I will die on this hill.
eren and y/n are andrew garfield/emma stone (ref: she was like a shot of espresso), danielle galligan/calahan skogman (ref: matching tattoos), daisy ridley jones/paul mescal (ref: undeniable SOMETHING)
hyla just has kardashians/nicki minaj level audacity. like kim wearing a purple dress and posting a story w/ speak now...nicki minaj ai generated diss track like that's her.

can I request an andrew / actress reader who stars in a movie together and fall in love. Like maybe a friends to lovers thing. When both asked to do a kiss scene that became hot and bothered. They reveal feelings for each other afterwards:)
Warnings: unedited! this is set after the filming of tick tick boom. Swearing, kissing, fluff, that's it!
Note: im really happy with this one, sorry it took so long beautiful!! thank you for the request!!
Tumblr media
You never expected in your whole life that acting would actually take you somewhere.
You were told by everyone that it was a pointless dead end for you, a child's dream. but boy were they wrong.
After winning your first golden globe and oscar it seemed your name was everywhere, you weren't able to leave your house without someone taking your photo.
But alongside this fame you were able to get many calls for new roles that you were excited to be a part of.
One specifically you were ecstatic about was an upcoming romantic comedy you would be starring in.
It was a good choice for yourself in a next movie as your last role was quite emotionally draining.
You only heard that you got the part yesterday and would be going to meet your cast mates and crew in a few weeks.
-
"Melony im plenty fine with my schedule at the moment, just because you're my agent doesn't mean you always need to stress. I have the meeting tomorrow morning for the film then will start filming the next day, and don't worry I've learnt my lines." You say out of breathe as you make your way for your small apartment the movie produces had given you.
"I know darling, just i dont want an occurrence of last winters disaster where you didn't show up for that meeting and they dropped you. But i know you won't let it happen again." She chastised through the speaker.
"It won't I promise and I mean it doesn't matter. Skipping that meeting gave me the opportunity to film the biggest movie of 2022!" You spoke taking your elevator to your apartment door.
"Anyway I gotta go, I have a few errands to run and to get some stuff into my apartment."
"Dont worry dear I'll call you in a few weeks, have fun filming!" She hummed through the phone.
"Sure will, bye." You let out a heavy sigh knowing this was going to be a full on few weeks.
You already felt home sick, you missed your dog, your family and your own cute house by the beach.
The elevator came to a stop, walking to your room: number 14. You knew that only people youre working with would be in this building along with you, so you felt quite safe from paparazzi.
You fiddled with your keys attempting to open your door when you heard the room across from yours door close.
You turned around to be met by... Andrew garfield? You were filming with the Andrew garfield? The two time oscar nominated, golden globe winner Andrew garfield?
The one your had a celebrity crush on since you watched him and Emma stone in his spiderman movies.
This was going to be an interesting mix.
"Hi, im andrew im going to be working on star crossed lovers with you." He uttered putting his hand out for you to take.
"Oh I know! I mean I know who you are! Im like your number one fan... honestly your work is incredible. Im so lucky to be working with you." You rambled seizing his hand in yours, not wanting to let go.
18 year old you would be jumping out of her skin right now, I mean even 30 year old you is.
"Haha im flattered. Its not everyday you get to work with a brilliant actress. Your last movie was absolutely phenomenal, and you did such a wonderful job." His voice was like honey, you couldn't help but melt under his praise. The andrew garfield just complimented your acting skills and movie?
"Well im really excited to be working with you. Im guessing you got the main role?" You asked attempting to hide the pink hue that covered your cheeks.
"Yeah I guess you're going to be the love interest." He spoke and you swear you saw a pink shade across his cheeks.
"The one and only." You laughed looking up into his brown doe eyes.
"Well I better get going, I need to run a few errands. It was lovely to meet you." He said lightly.
"Trust me it was an absolute delight to finally meet you." You spoke watching as he slowly made his way down the hall.
"See you tomorrow" he waved taking the stairs.
A massive sigh left your lungs, your legs barley taking your weight under your body. He was more dreamy in person and just as kind as you thought he would be.
You opened the big white door to the new home you would be living in for the next few months. A long next few months.
-
Now that you knew who you would be filming alongside these next few weeks you were so excited.
You couldn't help but hum to yourself as you made your breakfast that morning.
You made extra careful attention to your outfits and makeup when leaving for the set, not wanting to look as though you had only slept 2 hours that night. Which you had, the bags under your eyes making an obvious statement.
You hummed deciding to stroll to the studio this morning. The sun was warming your body in the most perfect way and the breeze even blowed eloquently, wisping at your face.
"hey! Wait up."
Your turned around seeing the gorgeous man, not a hair out of place as he jogged towards you attempting to keep the coffees from spilling.
It was quite amusing the sight of andrew carefully balancing the scolding hot caffeine as he tried to make up the distant, you couldn't help but chuckle to yourself.
"Whats so funny?" He asked handing you an almond milk latte with caramel, coincidentally the order you always got.
"Just watching you nearly falling over from the amount of drinks you have stacked up there" you smiled at the memory.
"Well, I traditionally always buy coffees for everyone on the first day of set. If I dont something bad always seems to happen whilst filming."
"Great start then, this is my go to coffee. Do you need me to take some of those?"
"Yes please, only known you 24 hours and you're already a life saver." He smiled handing you a tray of caffeine.
"You excited to start filming?" He asked taking a sip of his coffee.
"I am, im really excited to begin working with you. I've honestly dreamed of working with you since I watch your spiderman movies, you seem to have such natural chemistry with everyone you worked with and I can't help but- im rambling. Im sorry, I always get ahead of myself." you quietened taking a big gulp of your drink to avoid talking.
"No, no. Dont be sorry, im quite flattered. I watched your film and I must say you seem to have great connections with the people you act alongside with."
"Oh, um thanks. Im sure its going to be very easy working with you." I'm sure the whole world could see how red your face, with the amount of praise this man was giving you.
You both walked the streets side by side not caring if anyone took any photos of the two of you together, you were as happy as could be in this moment.
-
The first week of filming seemed to go by so fast. It was so easy to work alongside andrew, it felt so natural and not at all forced.
You were right his chemistry with everyone in the cast was incredible. You didn't feel at all uncomfortable with him, today you would have to film your fight scene which you knew was going to be emotionally hard day.
"FOLLOWING YOUR DREAMS DOESN'T MEAN YOU HAVE TO LEAVE ME BEHIND!!" you screamed at andrew tears pouring down your face.
"BUT YOU ALREADY HAVE A LIFE HERE... WITH YOUR FIANCE! Give me one good reason to stay here with you, watching you waste your life away with a man who doesn't love you nearly half as much as I do?" He sounded so genuine that it hit something deep within your past, you started feeling real emotion.
"you... you love me? WHY, WHY? Why are you telling me this now, Im meant to get married to him in a few weeks? You couldn't have told me sooner?"
"Was it not obvious enough?? I tell you how beautiful you are every. Single. Day. I hold you when you need me most, I share your joy with you when you're happiest. I talk about OUR future, when are you going to wake up and realise i was here all along? When are you going to realise i love you and I've loved you every single day of my life since that moment I first laid eyes on you?" It felt like the cameras weren't even there anymore, andrews eyes boring into your soul.
"CUT-" one of the people shouted standing behind the cameras.
Andrew took no time in racing towards you, driving you towards his chest. He embraced you with the most warming hug of your life.
"Hey. Im sorry, those scenes are so emotionally draining. You did so so incredibly dovey, i hope I didn't scare you." Andrew whispered rubbing at the hair on your head. (He'd gotten accustomed to calling by that name after a dove had followed you around all set because you didn't realise there were bread crumbs in your back pocket.)
"No. Dont be sorry, I am tougher than I look. You were absolutely brilliant, was so genuine. Your such an amazing actor." His smile said everything you didn't need to hear, big toothy grin from ear to ear.
"God you're so pretty. I- I mean a pretty amazing actor yourself." He nuzzled his face into your neck to hide the embarrassment he was feeling.
"I think we got the shot you two, next scene is your making up and kissing scene. Absolutely brilliant work everyone, just a few more hours to go!" The director praised.
"You ready?"
To kiss you, I've never been more ready in my life. (You want to say out loud)
"As ready as I'll ever be"
"3, 2, 1 and...ACTION!"
"I, I love you too" you whispered under your breathe.
"But why, oh why couldn't have you told me when we were 19 and young and stupid." You said taking two steps toward andrew as instructed.
"Because we were young, dumb and stupid. That stupid 19 year old only knew for certain that he wanted to spend the rest of his life with you. So he waited till he was prepared with a stable job and a lot more experience, to give the most deserving girl, the most deserving life she could imagine." Andrews breath warm on your face, you could smell the salty sea, the sweet cinnamon and something that was comfortably him.
"Now that 19 year old is a 35 year old man, prepared to give her all his love and his life, to grow old by her side and discover what it feels like to continue to fall in love with you every, single, day. Love is a word that doesn't even fit what kind of feeling that I have, this feeling where my heart is bursting through my chest and the ache is so much I just can't take it anymore. Can, can I kiss you?" His head fell softly on yours, every word felt so genuine and directed toward you.
"Please, please, please." You chanted like a mantra.
His lips slowly grazed yours, they were soft and felt so perfect against your own.
You had kissing scenes with other actors before, but nothing felt so real and perfect than this kiss.
He took the lead continuing to mold your lips together, tilting your face towards his, hands resting upon your cheeks.
It felt like all the unspoken adoration between you to was in this kiss. Folding your hands between the soft locks the graciously fell at the back of his head.
The kiss was so sweet and soft, his lips tasted of the watermelon gum he had been chewing earlier.
You almost forgot you were being filmed till you heard a loud *CUT* both of you pulling back immediately a bit embarrassed.
You could see the obvious flush that splayed across andrews features, he looked even more angelic with his lips a bit puffy and red, his eyes sparkling with love.
Im sure you looked the same from his point of view.
"Well, that's a wrap. I'll see you guys next week."
"Thanks Tim!" You thanked your director and made your way for your changeroom, to scared to face andrew again.
"Holy shit... HOLY FUCKING SHIT?!?!?" you screamed to your reflection.
"I really just did that? Somebody pinch me?"
"Oh dovey, I would pinch you to make sure you weren't dreaming, but I could never hurt you." Andrew stood in the doorway a grin plastered his adoring face.
"Please don't tell me you've been standing there this whole time?" You sat down on your chair in shame.
"Okay. I won't tell you that then." He made his way over to you carefully.
"So..."
"So"
"Well I don't know about you, but I think im extremely embarrassed, not only because of what you just heard, but because we just made our so hard infront of... everyone."
"You're cute when you're flustered dovey." Andrew smirked. Holding your face in his hands.
"How bout I take you out on a date?"
"Wha- what? Andrew actually pinch me, I think I am dreaming." You squealed.
"So is that a nooo?"
"ITS A YES!! its defintly a yes!!"
"You know you're my celebrity crush ever since I saw you in your cheesy disney channel show" he laughed holding you close.
"Oh no. I told them to burn that movies years ago." You joined in the laughter.
"But, nathaniel. Hes not just a boy, he's a man. A, a real man with amazing beach sand hair." Andrew mocked, reminding you of the horrid script.
"Dont even go their spider boy." You smirked.
"Oh, well this spider boy has some spider tricks up his sleeve." He chuckled, tasting your lips once again.

HotD Ep 7: Thoughts (spoilers!)
Wow. What an episode.
"We have always been meant to burn together" had poets and writers crying. Jane Austin who? Most romantic line I ever heard. Also love the parallel during the funeral where Rhaenyra was tracking Daemon with her eyes– almost primal nature like two animals circling each other. It’s a familiar characteristic of Targaryens because it highlights their “Closer to (dragon) gods than men” saying
Aemond claiming Vhagar was one of my favourite scenes ever– cinematically. It was so cool and well shot. Plus, the kid actor who plays Aemond was amazing.
Least Favourite scene: The beach sex scene (I know, daemyra's look awayyyy). It wasn't horrible, but it wasn't amazing. I was expecting more considering it's been 10+ years since they've seen each other. I guess I was wanting more yearning, tension, lust and passion– which is my own expectations fault. Honestly, for a second there I though Emma and Matt's chemistry wouldn't work. (Thank god for the wedding scene!!!)
Tumblr media
I need them to have another sex scene, but this time with a female director because how are you gonna put have two actors with chemistry and give them a shitty love scene.
Favourite scene: The traditional Targaryen wedding. Are you kidding me? Like that was one of the most romantic, fantasy genre wedding sequences I have ever seen. Matt and Emma's chemistry was chemistry-ing.
Tumblr media
A close second favourite is the confrontation scene between Alicent and Rhaenyra. The acting was amazing, some really great lines were thrown in, and the mood was set for the future episodes. It's like the pieces are finally falling into place of what will be the highlight for the rest of the series. We are only at the beginning.
The scene of the kids literally jumping on Aemond was funny as hell. I was literally cheering my kiddos on! Baela with that deadly right hook + Lucerys with the winning slash?! Now that is cinema. It was also really cute how the boys immediately jumped into to defend the girls.
What I did not get was why Daemon did not once interact with his daughters during the entire episode? During the funeral– nada. Seeing them with their bloodied faces after a fight– nada.
The first thing Rhaenyra did as soon as they arrived (sex hair and all) was call out to her sons, but crickets from Daemon. Then they had the audacity to show Daemon walking up to Rhaenyra to check on her wound (which was cute and domestic as hell. I squealed!), stand by Rhaenyra and her sons, BUT not show him check on his own two daughters. Where the hell is my Daddy Daemon?!
I love, love that scene between Rhaenyra and Laenor where they laid out their feelings. It was clear they tried to make their marriage work, but they are too different and want different things. Plus, that ending had me gasping and everything– what a twist! (what about his dragon though?)
Why did the children have to watch their parents go through the whole blood ceremony wedding. Luke clearly just wanted to stay home and play with his Granddad's Lego.
+ French kissing like that in front of said children?! Disgusting. Call child services.
Helaena, my little bug child, they could never make me hate you.
"I'm going to bed, Aemma" I GAGGED.
Tumblr media
Rhaenyra proposing in High Valeriyan was the best thing I could've ever received from this show. Not only was it romantic as hell considering those two only spoke High Valeriyan to each other (it's literally their love language babes), but Emma D'arcy did such a phenomenal job with the dictation that it seemed so natural on their tongue.
That is all.
Great episode, and now I cannot wait for next week!
ps. this lil moment was kinda hot

hiiii i was hoping you could write a florence pugh x fem reader one shot where florence gets nominated for oscar and they celebrate like maybe r makes a party and after that it can me smut if you are comfortable with that pls
YOU HAVE A FUCKING OSCAR!
Warnings: A little degradation in bed, a bit of black humor, Smut and therefore 18+ only, fluff, established relationship
Word count: 2.0 K
Pairing: Florence Pugh x Fem!Reader
Prompt: Florence is nominated for an academy award, but she doesn't think she's good enough to win the award.
Y/N will show her that she is not only an excellent actress, but that she is also an excellent girlfriend.
Requests: OPEN
[Main masterlist] [Actors and actresses masterlist]
Tumblr media
“Could you hold still, you won't even be able to watch TV” 
“Y/N, how do you ask me to relax” 
"Come baby, you just need to relax" 
Flo sat next to me as the television returned from its commercial breaks. 
"Are you going for 'best supporting actress' or 'best actress'?" 
"I'm your girlfriend, and you don't know what my role was?" 
"Sorry, I fell asleep in the middle" 
We both started laughing as she just hit my knee 
"You're a disgusting girlfriend" 
"You still love me" I crinkle my nose and stuck out my tongue
"I really adore you" 
The sound of the television interrupted us 
'And the nominees for Best Actress are: Olivia Colman - The Field of Lilies. 
Florence Pugh–Green....' 
We didn't even listen to the other nominees, it was just a matter of hearing Flo 's name for her to start jumping on the couch, while I threw myself on top of her so I could hug her 
"You did it love, damn you did it!" I started kissing all over her face while she calmed down and laughed at the tickle that caused her "YOU HAVE A FUCKING OSCAR!"
"Well, as such I still don't have it" the blonde shrugged her shoulders in indifference 
"What nonsense are you saying? Who else could be deserving of this award? Who else is nominated?" 
"I seem to be competing against Olivia Colman, Meryl Streep, Cate Blanchett and Emma Stone" I saw her shoulders slump almost in defeat "I'm literally competing against the titans of Hollywood" 
"Well, there's always the option of a multiple homicide" I raised my eyebrows repeatedly trying to make her laugh, but she just grimaced "It was just a joke" 
"I don't stand a chance." Flo slumped her shoulders in defeat. "How am I going to win against such actresses?" 
“Hey , listen to me” I took her face in my hands to make her eyes look directly into mine “you are a phenomenal actress, you have nothing to envy Meryl Streep; you're just as talented" I started kissing her forehead and cheeks "and assuming you didn't win, the simple fact of being nominated is already something incredible, something that deserves a great celebration" 
"What do you have in mind, bunny?" 
"A big party" 
——————————————————————————— 
Although at first, Florence refused to have a party, but, as soon as she saw the first guest arrive, her frown immediately disappeared.
At first I thought that the Oscar nomination would be a good excuse to throw a giant-sized party, but seeing how our apartment was becoming a small mess with the amount of people, I began to worry. 
"Y/N, you look stressed" Scarlett put her arm around my shoulders and snatched my glass of juice "You should have some alcohol" 
"I'm not stressed, I'm just thinking about what I'll have to pick up after this" 
"But isn't it worth it just to watch your girlfriend celebrate her nomination?" 
"Sure" I looked at the blonde's profile and tapped her cheek with my fingers "speaking of nominations, do you expect this to be your chance to take the statuette home, Mrs. Johansson?" 
"Well, the truth is that, it has been complicated, but if we take into account..." 
We both started laughing at his antics, but I returned my gaze to my girlfriend. 
"Flo doesn't think she has a chance" 
“What? But she is a great actress" 
"That's what I tell her, but it seems she's a bit intimidated by being in direct competition with Meryl Streep." 
"Well... maybe I'd be less nervous if in an almost extraordinary way, Meryl Streep was dropped from the academy, wouldn't I?" she started hitting my arm with his elbow 
"That's what I told her" we laughed again "but as much as I love my girlfriend, I would like to see more musicals with Meryl" 
"TRUE; You know I love your girlfriend, but if Meryl wins, I won't be mad." 
The party continued until late at night, and at almost 3:00 AM the last guest left, and finally Florence and I were able to go up to our room. 
I fell straight onto the bed, while Flo changed into more comfortable clothes . 
"Did you like your party?" 
"Of course my love, thank you very much for doing this for me" 
She lay down next to me and I quickly put my head on her chest. 
"I'm surprised how you looked so beautiful in that pretty dress, and right now, despite your messy clothes you still look like the most beautiful woman in the world" 
At first, we start with a make out session and nothing more, just wanting to show her how beautiful she is in my eyes, how in love I am with her, and how proud I am to be her girlfriend.
But things started to level up, my hand went straight to her belly, under her shirt, while Flo gently squeezed my butt; but her hand did not stay long in the place, she quickly started to climb up my back until he touched the zipper of my dress and started to lower it while I walked away a little
"You know honey, I love how that dress looks on you, but I'd love to see you without it." 
I knelt down putting my knees on either side of her torso and stripped out of my little red dress, leaving me in just a pair of cotton panties. 
At first, I was very embarrassed that my girlfriend saw me in underwear that was not 'sexy', it even became an insecurity for me, but the best I could do was expose that insecurity to Flo , she made me feel safe of me, my body and even my clothes. So when I saw how she gave me a beautiful smile at the sight of my underwear, it only made me return it
She raised her upper body and supported her weight on her forearms, causing her hair to cascade. 
"Is this 'Snoopy' underwear?" 
" Flo , stop making fun of my underwear!" 
"What? She's cute," she started kissing my hips as she tried to pull my panties down, "I'm amazed how you make that damn dog look so good on a butt." 
I patted her hands lightly, causing her to take her hands off my hips and look directly into my eyes. 
“It seems unfair to me that you wanted to pull off my only garment, while you still haven't taken anything off” 
Florence almost graciously and quickly pulled me in, causing my back to touch the mattress as she almost ripped off her nightgown and bra, leaving her in simple black Calvin Klein panties. 
“Ready, now, what we have left” 
He began to kiss my neck, knowing that it is one of my weak points, causing me to let out small moans, as she went down to my breasts.
Despite having little fat in that part of my body, Flo liked to play with my nipples, she knew my body like the back of her hand.
Although she liked to take her time, I think my not-so-light moans and constant hip thrusts made her feel a little sorry for me, so she quickly removed my panties.
"Do you have a hair bow?"
I took the garter from my wrist and handed it to her.
She tied her hair up in a little ponytail and went back down to my legs
She started kissing my thighs as she went up, but just as she got to my center, she turned away. 
“ Flo ...no games please” 
"O.K baby" 
She took a long, slow lick at my center, from my perineum to my clit causing me to let out a higher, higher moan. 
"You are a delicacy of the gods" she gave my clit a little pat making me jump and bite the pillow to keep from screaming "You are the best bitch I could ask for" 
Florence knew that bad words made me so hot, so she was using that to her advantage. 
Knowing that she had had enough of foreplay, Flo simply proceeded to suck, lick and even bite my clit, while her index and middle fingers entered my cavity and searched for my G-spot, arching my back, taking her ponytail. and pulling. a little
"Flo… I'm close"
“Come for me, bitch. Shout my name"
The orgasm hit me so hard I don't even remember making a sound beyond a moan; I think the fact that Florence was away from home for a few days made not only my head and heart miss her, but my body as well.
"That was good?" She ask as brings her face closer to mine.
“Oh yeah, I missed you” I stole a kiss from her, tasting myself on his lips
“ Mmm , girl did I miss you too”
I took her shoulders with my hands and with a little force, I exchanged positions leaving her lying down and me straddling her.
"What's on your mind, dirty girl?"
" Mmm , just making up for my winner" I started to kiss her neck, causing her to giggle.
"But I haven't won the Oscar yet, baby"
“But the simple fact of being the incredible girlfriend that you are, makes you deserve an award”
I began to play with her breasts, while my right hand began to enter her panties.
"I just started touching you and you're already wet?" I bit her right nipple a bit
"Agh, what do you want me to do, I like to see how my girl goes crazy for my caresses"
"You're a fucking narcissist" I sucked on her other nipple, causing her to violently arch her back and try to grab a handful of my hair "no, precious, you can't touch until I tell you to."
"My love, don't be cruel" 
“Do what I tell you Rose, or I will stop touching you” 
She understood, so she let me go back to my task of playing with her, but I didn't want to make her suffer either, so I started to make a tour with my tongue to her lower belly, right where the elastic of her panties began, which I started to lower with the teeth slowly 
"Y/N, please don't be cruel." 
“I will only be kind because you were kind to me” 
I almost ripped her panties off and buried my face in her center, sucking on her clit. 
"Son of a bitch, Y/N, tell me I can touch you"
"Yes, you can touch me now"
I quickly pull my hair up into a makeshift ponytail and try to find a rhythm between my movements and her hip thrusts.
Unlike me, Florence was much louder, so the moans and screams were immediate.
"Mmm, you're doing great, you're a good slut" she pulled my hair again, making me moan and the vibrations from her reached her clit "You don't know how much I love you"
I started working a little harder, biting on her clit and even spitting on my fingers to insert them into her vagina
"Just hearing you spit reminds me how vulgar you can be, you're just vulgar to me right baby?"
"Yeah Flo I'm just your little bitch"
"Ahg, my little bitch" her legs began to shake and her toes began to curl together with her back "I am cumming, I want you to leave me clean"
"Yes love"
Her orgasm overtook her causing her to let out a loud scream, which our neighbors surely heard. Doing my best to make her orgasm last a little longer, I licked at her slowly, until she was back to normal.
"Damn you Y/N you're a goddess"
Flo forced me to go back up to her face and kiss me desperately "Thank you very much"
“My love, there is nothing to be thankful for”
"I'm not just talking about sex. I mean everything, the party, celebrating with me, trusting me, being the best thing that could have happened to me."
I lay on her chest while she kissed my head and I kissed her chest
"I'm the one who should be thankful, that a great person and actress loves me enough to give me the best sex in the world"
We both laughed and little by little we got tired, so we quickly fell asleep cuddling, but not before thanking life for the incredible girlfriend I have.
Note:
Forgive the delay, I thought I'd have it this afternoon, but I couldn't concentrate hard enough.
I hope you like it, I appreciate the reblogs, the likes and the comments

9 people you want to get to know better
Ooh, alright then! Here we go!
I was tagged by @eomma-jpeg (thank you! :D)
Last song: Listen... Idk why, but I just went on a crazy La La Land song binge last night? Just outta nowhere? So, while it's not the last song I listened to (that was probably whatever was on in the car on the drive home from work), this is what's currently stuck in my damn head. XD Lovely Night - Ryan Gosling & Emma Stone
Currently reading: Um! Well, as far as actual books go, uh... 😅 Although, I did buy This is How We Lose the Time War (by recommendation of a certain Bigolas Dickolas XD) that I need to get to. And also Camp Damascus, haha.
Current fic: God, too many to count. 😰 But I am super duper looking forward to the conclusion of @eomma-jpeg's absolutely phenomenal Trigun fic, In the Meadow! :D (Last chapter comes out TOMORROW, I'M SO EXCITED!!!)
Also really wanna read @noaafishfieldguide's Trigun mermaid!AU fic, omg. Really need to get to that someday? As well as like a hundred other assorted Trigun fics, omg. XD
Currently watching: Uh... Well, I binged a whole bunch of really sad history videos about terrible things that happened last night. Does that count? 😅 Nah, but for reals, the only show I'm watching rn is the Rurouni Kenshin reboot? Haha, it's just that and rewatching Trigun and TriStamp over and over when I'm not on YouTube. XD
Next on my watchlist: FUCKIN CASTLEVANIA NOCTURNE, BOIS!!!!!!!! HOLY SHIT, I AM SO EXCITED ABOUT THAT SHOW?!?!?!?! There are also a handful of movies I'm interested in, too, if I ever get around to them, omg. And, y'know... TriStamp season 2, whenever that will be, omg.
Current obsession: I'm sure y'all might have picked up on this by now, but I have fallen hard back into Trigun, omgggggggg. It's actually ridiculous how much this has no taken over my life. 😫 But besides that, my love of Genshin Impact has been rekindled with the update, so I'm like back on board with that, too? To a lesser degree, I'm also lowkey obsessing over FFXVI because that game was amazing and it seems like no one's talking about it for some reason, omg. And also hyped about whatever new pieces of FFVII Remake info is trickling down. Oh, and CASTLEVANIA NOCTURE OF COURSE, OHOHOHOHOHOHO! And, last but not least, there is always my lingering love of DBH there in my periphery. Ah, I will never fully leave that one I think. XD
Tagging:

Saw My Policeman yesterday and then I got taught how to do a read more so we’re going to try it:
My Policeman Spoilers underneath:
*******************************************
Okay so I haven’t read the book. So I went in only knowing only what I’ve gotten from the trailers and stills I’ve seen. I try to avoid spoilers here and you all do a great job tagging them- so I went in very fresh.
Emma is incredible. Their reactions, their facial expression, everything. Loved them so much. And David, he’s REALLY something. He just has this gentle, beautiful presence.
Rupert was wonderful. With so little to work with, he did such a great job. And Gina did such an amazing job carrying Emma into the future. When she made her choice at the end I CRIED so hard. I think Marion is a really complex character and I loved her journey. I thought Linus also did a phenomenal job as future Tom, I thought he was suuuuper convincing as an older Harry. That was a really spot on casting choice, and a role well acted.
And Harry, my Harry. I kept trying to pull him and the character apart, but I failed… frequently. I think Harry and Tom obviously have so many things in common, and I just saw Harry’s easy charm oozing out all over the place. Not at all saying that he did a poor job acting- far from it- but. How do I explain this? I think this is more what Harry is like in real life. Not Harry Styles™, but Harry. I think he is pensive, and intense, and charming, and loves everyone, and noble, and afraid to let anyone down or hurt anyone. That’s Tom, but I think that’s Harry too. I think we see performer Harry, and camera ready Harry, and sometimes goofy Harry- but he’s always working when we see him. He’s always “on.” This is kind of what I think he’s like in private, if that makes sense?
The story is sad, and of course I cried. It’s beautiful, in a quiet way. I can see why Harry was drawn to it, for sure. It’s simple but in a really striking way. I adored the choice Marion made at the end. It takes an extremely strong woman to do what she did, and I was really drawn to her. The end scene, cutting from her in the taxi to them at the house just gutted me in a couple of different ways.
It’s definitely one I would see again, and one I will tell people to go see. It was just… I don’t know. I keep wanting to say quiet. Simple. But truly beautiful. It’s about all consuming love, but it doesn’t put on a grand show or make a big fuss about it? It’s about two people who loved each other but had to hide, and the consequences of concealing something as intense and powerful as the love of a lifetime.
Anyway it was truly lovely to watch. And I’m over the moon for Harry, and the rest of the cast and crew- it’s a job well done.

Top 10 Films!
(Thanks for the tag SO long ago @a-slut-for-smut! I actually had this entire post written in my drafts right after you had tagged me but never got around to post it for some reason LOL)
I don’t watch many films anymore these days (shows/series have taken place of it) so it took awhile to recall all of my favorites. It’s actually nice to remember though, because it means all of these really lasted with me over my life.
Tumblr media
The Perks of Being a Wallflower (2012): A perfect coming-of-age film and story, discovered in my junior year of highschool. First of all I was in love with Logan Lerman looool and Emma Watson. But there are lines of this book/movie that stuck with me through my life, and the movie executed it perfectly. A story of finding belonging, first love, overcoming trauma alongside loved ones, growing up. The soundtrack is phenomenal, even the music score album (I listen to that often while writing).
Tumblr media
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (2004): The cinematography and shots in this are just so gorgeous and creative. It’s a quirky and angsty film circling around two imperfect lovers who choose to love, who deal with the heartbreak in a terrible way, and who fall in love again, saying yes to the struggle. And, come on! The idea of having your memories erased, then during the process realizing you want to keep the painful memories after all? And navigating through memories trying to hold onto the good and the bad? Just a beautiful concept. Lots of fantastic lines and scenes. I took a lot of inspo from one scene in particular of this movie into some of the latest chapters of my longfic.
Tumblr media
The Fault in Our Stars (2013): First of all, TFIOS is one of my all time favorite books. John Green is my favorite author, and is the only (published) author I’ve EVER gone out of my way to read multiple works from. TFIOS was the first book that brought me to *literal* tears. It rocked my world, this ill-fated story of star crossed lovers. The movie did a fantastic job adapting it; as soon as the production was announced I followed it loyally and the execution of the film made it so worth the journey. Hazel and Augustus’ actors’ chemistry was just SO good. The film STILL makes me bawl like a baby. Pls watch.
Tumblr media
Anastasia (1997): A favorite since childhood! Romanov Princess gone missing, forced to pretend she’s the princess but she doesn’t know she’s the princess, until she finds out the conman she’s working with was the child who saved her long ago in her lost past? And they fall in love? So the conman lets go of all his con ways??? BEAUTIFUL. Love the music, love the animation, loved the idea of finding the missing princess and the love story of an unrecognized reunion of two childhood friends. I’ve always wanted to write a Rivamika/Anastasia AU 🥰 Someday.
Tumblr media
Tangled (2010): I think as a teen I just really resonated with the “lost princess, aching for more in her life, feeling stuck in a tower, fall in love with conman” trope 🤣 But also, this was one of the first movies that made me just feel overwhelmed with heart-squeezing emotion. (I freaking loved Rapunzel; related to her in many ways) The lantern scene took my breath away and I had never really felt that in a movie theater before. Love the soundtrack and movie scores (did a music analysis presentation on the score back in highschool), animation was and still is beautiful even if it was one of Disney’s pioneering 3D animation movies.
Tumblr media
Les Miserables (2012): I’m a sucker for musicals but this is one that I hold special in my heart. Aside from the fact that I played violin for Les Mis productions for two years, so I am attached to the music deeply... the story! The cinematography! The acting! The live singing! The instrumentals! Just a perfect cinematic experience. Eponine’s friend-zone story still breaks my heart, and I watched this movie at a time when I was going through her situation. I fell in love w the storytelling; how it took the journeys of multiple protagonists and perfectly interweaved each arc into each other’s so seamlessly. Also another movie that makes me bawl. Now that I stop to think of it, Fantine reminds me of Kuchel ;-;
Tumblr media
Titanic (1997): I just rewatched this recently, after many many many years since childhood where I wasn't allowed to watch the kiss scenes (lol!) and holy wow it is a fantastic movie from start to end. It also helps now that I totally see Jack/young Leo as Levi. Beautiful timeless love story set in history. You know everything that happens and yet you still get so immersed into it.
Tumblr media
August Rush (2007): I haven’t watched this in YEARS but 100% this deserves to be on my faves. August, an orphan who is looking for his parents, is discovered for his musical talents on an inspiring journey. Beautiful story about how someone’s passion for music/art (anything, really) can change their life; his parent’s story even becomes a reunion love story. This def had moments that took my breath away, too. (When August Rush gets up on that stage with the orchestra, ahhhh)
Tumblr media
The Pianist (2002): (And honorable mention: Schindler’s List) Painfully beautiful movies. Terrible history of our world, depicted with care and pointing to the glimmers of hope in a heart wrenching way that deeply affects you. I think of both of these movies often. In The Pianist, Brody’s character is discovered to be a pianist by a German officer who helps him hide. Schindler’s List is about how a German man risks it all to save many Jews. The directing in both is phenomenal; the music—agh, that violin in Schindler’s List—too. I tear up thinking of this.

The Prince of Egypt (1998): Lastly, The Prince of Egypt. This movie rocked my world to see an ancient story, which I grew up with and was important to me and my faith when I was young, illustrated and animated with such beautiful art, music, etc. Moses leading a slave nation out of Egypt despite the odds. The burning bush scene and this one will always be iconic cinema scenes in my heart. Phew. Pls watch to those scenes with the music!!!
Thanks for tagging me @a-slut-for-smut! This was so fun to put together. I’ve been wanting to rewatch old classics to case-study the story writing and learn from my faves, so a movie marathon after the busy season will be a fun learning experience 😍

Comments on House of The Dragon s01e08
The acting
Everybody gave us a show. Olivia when Alicent learned what Aegon II did to Dyana, holding back her tears for what her son did. Emma when Rhaenyra talked alone with Viserys. Paddy in every scene he was in. Gosh the acting in the series is being amazing so far but this episode was phenomenal. So much was said, and so much was said just by the actors gaze. Amazing
The Sea Snake
Okay, I genuinely understand Vaemond claim it's a fair one and it fits one of the shows subjects about the second son always have to fight for something, we saw that with Daemon, with Otto and now with Vaemond.
But c'mom man. Rhaenyra wasn't wrong, you may be concerned about your family blood but you also want the power of being the lord of Drifftmak. Corlys isn't even dead and Vaemond is already plotting against his lord, Corlys, wish's and his wife. Corlys was the Sea Snake but the one who acted like a Snake was Vaemond
And finally someone was punish after saying that Rhaenyra kids are bastards.
The Kids that are no longer kids
To people in the fandom really believe that a rapist would be a good king? Aegon II is disgusting and just mean. I get you are traumatized or wherever by the toxic environment you grow up but doesn't make it okay all the shit you do.
Aemond saw Daemon being all cool murdering Vaemond and thought to himself "I wanna be as cool as my Uncle". And with that in mind he almost ruined one actually sweet and happy moments between Greens and Blacks, what a dick.
Jace and Luke are such sweethearts. Always by each other, by their family. Jace always protecting Baela, such a gentleman. Rhaenyra raised those boys pretty well.
The Dinner
That dinner really was the calm before the storm type of scene. Say wherever you want about Viserys be a weak king but overall he was a good man who only wanted to see his family together and happy and in his final moments he saw exactly that.
Rhaenyra once again trying to make peace with Alicent and this time, Alicent being reciprocate. How Alicent runs to apologize and reach for Rhaenyra arm, I felt that she really does feel sorry for what happened last episode and wanted peace at last. And after what Aegon II did, he may have thought to herself that her son didn't deserve to sit on the throne.
The prophecy
I like how they remember the Song of Ice and Fire dream, making Rhaenyra claim don't look greedy or anything. She was happy in DragonStone, she may have thought that may not be worthy be possible war for her to sit in the throne. Reinforce that promise to her is reinforce her claim and motivation. Which I think it will be important when her son's start to die.
I just don't get it way they made Alicent heard the prophecy. She is already a deep character with deep and conflicted motivation's. For the Dance to happen she didn't need to thought that Aegon II was the chosen. Which also supports her claim. I get that they may not wanted to make the good and evil sides so visible to us, that they wanted to make the "evil" ones be more pleasant towards the audience but still

Whether it’s talking ourselves through long, thankless days at work, worldbuilding within our DMs, or sending each other silly TikToks, my days are infinitely better with you in them. Here’s to another trip around the sun—let’s make it a good one!

Happiest of birthdays, Cat! Your writing has meant a great deal to so many people, myself included. PWC was one of the first stories I really got into when I joined the fandom. It is so inspiring to see someone so dedicated to storytelling and writing characters who are beautifully flawed. I hope that you have a relaxing celebration surrounded by those you love, and know that all of your internet friends wish they could be there as well!

If Cat were a cat she’d be my kind of cat, bright and purring and playful, a nice kind of cat. She’d wake me in the morning with a pat of her paw and sleep in the sunshine along the north wall. But Cat’s not a cat, she’s a wonderful pal, sweet and supportive, full of talent et al. Sometimes she’s sad, and of course that’s okay, we all have our feelings and our very bad days. But mostly she writes like her heart is on fire, tales of heroes and lovers and things poorly wired. I get lost in her moments and wander her tales, I often feel that next to her my writing pales. But how can one hold one art next to another? Cat is unique—writer, author, and mother. The way that her stories can stir up the feels, I make her my queen, to this Cat I kneel. Please all raise a glass to our Cat, birthday queen! The loveliest, kindest, most amusing and brilliant, balanced and giving Cat I’ve ever seen. <3
